Hi DIYer.
Jorge here from Alarm Grid.
Today I'm going to be showing you
guys how to delete a security sensor or a zone
from your Honeywell pro A7 Plus or Pro A7 Plus C.
Now, this is brand new for a lot of us
just because when this panel was first initially released
it did not have local programming enabled.
This was actually just released in June of 2021.
So if you guys are just now buying a Pro A7 Plus,
you should be receiving a panel that has access to programming.
If you guys have one from before,
then you guys just need to run a firmware update
which your company needs to push that through to the panel
and that should enable the local programming
and you now can start adding and deleting devices
from programming.
So everyone's super excited and hopefully this video
helps you guys remove devices on your own
now since we have access to it.
So the first thing you're going to need if you do
have a Pro A7 Plus security system or the Pro A7 Plus C,
you need deinstaller code.
Typically, Honeywell installer code
is always going to be 4112.
Yours may be different if your company or yourself
have changed it.
If you're monitored with us, the installer code
we usually like to leave it as 4112
for troubleshooting purposes as it's easier for a lot of you
DIYers out there to remember it.
So the first thing I'm going to do is, from the main screen
right here, there's a little Hamburger
icon at the very center bottom that's
going to bring down our menu or that's
going to open our menu on the side.
And just like any Honeywell system,
you have to go to Tools.
It's a little different process on the newer systems
just because it has this little side menu
but you're going to scroll down and you're
going to go to Tools.
It's going to ask you for your code.
This is where you're entering your installer
code, minus 4112.
If you guys entering the code and it doesn't do anything
that's because it's not a valid code.
You need to use the installer code.
If it works, you'll be taken here.
And what are we going to do now?
If it's your first time seeing it,
you're going to have to go to programming.
It's going to go enter into programming mode.
We are going to change peripherals.
If this is your first time using a Honeywell Pro A7 Plus,
it's a little different than the other ones.
The other ones usually just said zones.
We need to go into peripherals.
That's the second option right there.
It'll say sensors, key fobs and keypads.
Now, before I go ahead and go into deleting the zone,
I just want to quickly touch base on the amount of zones
that the system can support.
It does hold 250 security sensors or zones.
127 of those zones are for the Pro 6 series or 6 series
encrypted sensors and 123 of those
are for the Legacy sensors.
So the Legacy Honeywell, Legacy 2GIG, Legacy Interlogix,
Legacy DSC.
In order to use these kinds of legacy sensors
you do need the Pro Takeover module installed in the system
so that you can make your panel work
with those other frequencies.
So for today's video I only have one sensor
programmed in but if you guys had multiple,
you have a whole list.
What we're going to do to delete it,
there's this little empty square on the right hand
side of the sensor.
If you want to select multiple, delete multiple,
you're going to just check mark them.
Since I only have one, I'm just going to check mark that one.
Once you check mark that, you'll see the Delete button show up
in the top right corner.
That only shows up if you have a sensor check marked.
If no sensor is check marked, you
see the Delete button disappears.
It's no longer there.
So I'm going to hit this sensor, I'm going to select Delete.
What you're doing is you're freeing up that zone
to be able to be used with another sensor,
with another sensor's serial number basically.
So once I hit Delete, it's going to ask you
if you just want to confirm just to be safe since selected one
sensor will be deleted.
So I'm going to confirm it, it'll delete it.
And now since that was the only sensor I had,
I no longer have any peripherals.
To back out to the main screen, I'm
just going to hit this little top left back
arrow key two times.
1, 2, exiting programming mode.
Then from there, you can either hit the bottom right icon
to go to the main screen or just keep repeatedly
tapping that back arrow to get back to your main screen.
So that was a quick video on how to delete a sensor on your Pro
A7 Plus.
Now that we actually have access to the programming,
everybody should be able to do this and add sensors.
We're going to have a lot of new content coming
for you guys regarding the programming so stay tuned.
